In 2023, the import value of prepared or preserved tuna, skipjack, and bonito to the UK stood at $579 million USD. The forecast from 2024 shows a steady increase, reaching $619.37 million USD by 2028. This forecast represents a year-on-year percentage growth of approximately 1.41% from 2024 to 2025, and an average compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 1.34% over the five-year forecast period. These figures suggest a stable growth trajectory in imports considering the forecasted annual increments.
Future trends to watch for include:
